"Somethin' Stupid" is best known by Frank Sinatra and his daughter Nancy. It was covered by Robbie Williams and Nicole Kidman in 2001 - the first and only time a father-daughter duo reached number #1.
D E E E E F#
I know I stand in line
F#-F# F# G G G G G
Until you think you have the time
F# E D E - E G F#
To spend an evening with me
E - D G F#
D E E E E - F# F#-F#
And if we go someplace to dance
F# G G G G G
I know that there's a chance
F# E D E - E G F#
You won't be leaving with me...
(E - D G F#)
D G - G - G G A A-A
And afterwards we drop into
A B - B B-B ^D ^C B G A B A
A quiet little place and have a drink or two
D G G G E F# F# F#
And then I go and spoil it all
E G - G G - E F# - E
By saying something stupid
F# B A G
Like "I love you"
D D G G G G G
I can see it in your eyes
A A A - B B B B ^D
That you despise the same old line
^C B G A B - A
You heard the night before...
D G G G E F# F# F#
And though it's just a line to you,
E G G G
For me it's true
E G - E G ^C B A - A
And never seemed so right before...
D E - E E - E F# F# F# F# G - G G G A
I practice every day to find some clever lines to say
F# E D E - E G F#
To make the meaning come through
D E E E E F# F#-F#
But then I think I'll wait until
F# G - G G G F# E D-E G F#
The evening gets late and I'm alone with you...
D G G G G A - A A A B
The time is right, your perfume fills my head
B B B ^D ^C B G A B A
The stars get red and, oh, the night's so blue
D G G G E F# F# F#
And then I go and spoil it all
E G - G G - E F# - E
By saying something stupid
F# B A G
Like "I love you!"
